Angela’s Training Secrets Revealed
Summer usually means going to the beach or just hanging out somewhere with a pool. I think this season needs preparation, a lot actually.
I would like to introduce my friend Angela who is a model and actress. She is also one of my good and understanding clients and I am here to tell you about her exercise regimen.
Here is a week-long sample schedule I designed for Angela:
Monday: 45 MINUTES
30 minutes on the treadmill: constant changes every 2-3 minutes — lunges, running, jogging, walking, lateral lunges (talking about interval training at its best)
15 minutes – Steady time intervals focused on the whole body using resistance bands, body bar and Swiss ball (Angela doesn’t like using machines)
Tuesday: BOXING DAY 1 HOUR
Interval shadow boxing with hand weights
6- 8 rounds of glove work
5 minute full body plyometrics
2 round interval jump ropes
Intense full abdominal work: 50-100 repetitions per exercise (10 exercises)
Wednesday: 20 MINUTES
Swim day: 10 laps freestyle, 10 laps sidestroke, 10 laps backstroke, 10 laps breaststroke (cannot do butterflies)
Thursday: BOXING DAY 1 HOUR
5 rounds: heavy bag exercises (speed and power every 30 seconds)
5 rounds: glove work (focusing on speed and power)
3 round burpees: 30 seconds of burpees, 30 seconds of shadow boxing and then switch)
Intense Full Abs Workout – Slow, Controlled Movements (75 Reps Each Exercise)
Friday: 45 MINUTES
She does one of my recommended non-boxing routines from my eBook Train Like a Boxer: How to Get a Lean, Strong Body With Limited Time, Space, and Equipment. ([email protected] to request your copy TODAY).
Saturday: REST
Sunday: Angela plays in a recreational softball league (she says she kicks butt); tennis during the winter.
As you can see, no workout is the same in a week. This is a sample workout and the routines after each week change based on Angela’s request to KEEP IT FRESH! The result? A leaner and stronger body!
